Shower tray repair in Rokeby without replacing anything
Before repairing a crack, we find out why it happened. If the tray moves, the support is fixed or flagged before we repair it, so the repair lasts. Typical jobs include staining and dullness across the tray and chips caused during fitting, on ceramic, stone resin and acrylic.
You’re covered for a year from the day of the repair. If anything is not right, ring us and we will sort it.

Should you replace it?
The tray itself may not cost much, but the work around it does: taking out the enclosure, tiling and resealing. A repair is one visit. Prices start from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. The price we quote from your photos is the price you pay, and if the damage turns out to be different, we discuss it before starting.

Work for landlords and builders

What shower tray repair costs
Prices start from £95. Prices are worked out job by job, from your photos. What matters most is:
- The colour and finish to match
- Previous DIY repairs that have to come out
- How many areas need work
- Whether it’s a chip, crack, burn or wear
Rather than charging by the hour, we fix the price before we start. Damage, material and access decide it, and combining items on one visit brings it down.
Quotes from your pictures
Two or three clear pictures are typically enough. Try to include:
- Good light, ideally daylight, without flash glare
- A wider photo showing the entire shower tray
- Where you are, by postcode
- Any earlier repairs or coatings
The quickest way to a price is to send two or three photos using our quote form or call us. We’ll say immediately if a repair is the right fix.
What happens on the day
On the day itself, there is little for you to do. Show us the job, point us to the room, and we will get on with it. The job generally runs to a few hours, or most of a day for a full resurface, tidy-up included.
- First, we check whether the tray moves.
- We clean the damage and open it up so the repair can bond.
- We reinforce any crack and fill the damage.
- We shape the repair, match the colour and finish it.
- We leave it to cure, normally until the following day.
How to prepare
- Tell us if there are stairs or a lift
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
- Point us to the nearest place to park

When to call us in Rokeby
Rigid trays don’t bend, they crack when they sit on an uneven or poorly supported floor. Movement in a timber floor has the same effect.
Send us a picture if you notice any of these:
- Scratches in the surface
- Cracks running from the waste
- Snagging damage in a new bathroom
- Chips or cracks by the plughole
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- How your room will be protected
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- When it can be used again

How to care for the repair
Looking after the surface is easy, and it makes a real difference:
- Use the extractor fan
- Report any creaking or movement early
- Keep heavy bottles on a shelf
- Rinse away soap after showering
Check the silicone around the tray every few months, and reseal when it starts to fail.
A small crack lets in a little water every time you shower, and over months that can rot the floor. An early repair is far cheaper than floor repairs.
Honest limits
Some jobs are not right for a repair, for example:
- Leaking waste fittings
- Damage below the tray that needs a builder
- Movement caused by a poor base, until the support is fixed

What your shower tray is made of matters
Stone resin
Stone resin trays are popular because they’re rigid and low-profile. They need a flat, solid base, and we match repairs to the surface finish.
Acrylic
Acrylic-capped trays are lighter, so a firm base is essential. We repair cracks and scratches.
